Shoalhaven River Erosion Prevention and Mangrove Planting.

This project proposes to implement erosion control efforts in the Shoalhaven River riparian corridor, and bush regeneration in high conservation priority reserves throughout the central Local Government Area including erosion control works along St Georges Basin estuarine foreshore. Weed invasion has occurred in the majority of Council's natural area reserves with a consequent decline in biodiversity and resilience, and recreational impacts have resulted in erosion along estuarine shorelines. Participants will be required to do site assessments, works plan preparation, fencing and planting mangroves, planting endemic tubestock, pre-treatment of weeds, follow-up weed control and erosion control works including sandbagging, plastic mesh fencing, and track diversion.本项目拟在肖尔黑文河河岸带（riparian corridor）开展侵蚀防控工作，并于中央地方政府辖区内的全部高保护优先级保护区实施灌丛修复工程，其中涵盖圣乔治盆地河口滨岸的侵蚀防控作业。目前，辖区内多数市政自然区域保护区均已出现杂草入侵现象，进而导致生物多样性与生态韧性下降；此外，休闲游憩活动带来的负面影响引发了河口岸线的侵蚀问题。项目参与人员需完成场地评估、工程方案编制、围栏搭建、红树种植、乡土容器苗（tubestock）栽植、杂草预处理、后续杂草防控，以及沙袋防护、塑料网围栏布设、步道改道等各类侵蚀防控工程作业。
